This is only the Default behavior by the way - this can be changed easily with a small change in the registry. I had to enable it for a company I did some work for because their custom software uses Outlook to automatically eat babies in the background. Poor Bastards.
No; BBC B was too expensive for us!;-) BBC B at school and Spectrum at home...Anyway, I didn't say iBooks were necessarily a Bad Idea but I took exception to the suggestion that children would find Linux too complicated to use. It's simply not true. And I want that RAM:-)
I can tell you now, if I saw this kind of crap on/. and I was a big business CEO, I'd think twice about investing into creating stuff for/using Linux.
Uhuh. So, five years down the line when asked why you didn't invest in the most popular operating system going, you would reply, "Because Sacarino posted something on Slashdot!"
And if you can say with a straight face that school children have enough free time and, to be blunt, mental maturity to be able to learn to use Linux while they're in 7th grade, I'll buy you a 1GB stick of DDR RAM.
Well, I can. Did you guys all have Macs at school or something? All we had was a BBC B and a ZX Spectrum at home. Guess what? We managed. Anyway, with KDE3 what's so difficult? Want to write something, you click the Writer icon. Want to go on the Internet, click the Konqueror or Mozilla icon. Want to draw something, click on the KPaint icon (at least until someone says "hey, look what I can do, you click on GIMP and then logos and you can make cool pictures with your name on!").
The photon leaving the black hole has energy. The one dropping in has "negative energy". The black hole loses some energy/mass with each photon. The smaller the black hole the more extreme this effect, so tiny black holes should evaporate almost immediately. Huge black holes would take trillions of years to dissipate from Hawking radiation, but it would eventually happen.
Really? I thought India had been known for its rich spiritual heritage that had lasted for thousands of years before any contributions to the software world were made.
It was. And it was also known for its contributions to mathematics. India is known for more than one thing, because India is bigger than an apartment and has more than one person living there...
"The 4 quadrant corners of the Earth sphere rotate as a quad spiraling helix - thus creating 4 simultaneous days per each rotation and 4 simultaneous years per 1 orbit around Sun. Greenwich day is of stupidity."
Well, I wish all hospitals were private ones, that I could pay for a private insurance that would require me to pay and not fill forms.
But you can. You can pay for private heathcare in France, and you can get insured. If you didn't organise it before now, that's hardly anyone else's fault...
Have you considered the fact that "the roving prison" doesn't have to be on the equator? You should be ashamed:-)
Won't work. Think how to stay out of sunlight on the earth for three years....would staying at the North/South Pole work? Would circling around it work?
No, ymessenger for Linux is dreadful. It has hardly any options, and is still stuck at version 0.93. Use Everybuddy; it's much better (or Gaim, I suppose, though I haven't tried that).

Since you couldn't figure out what that batch file is doing, and apply it to Linux, I'm guessing....Ellen? Is that you?
Uhuh. So, five years down the line when asked why you didn't invest in the most popular operating system going, you would reply, "Because Sacarino posted something on Slashdot!"

Email me for my address to send the RAM to...
Naw, just make it that the user must click "I do not accept" to continue the installation...
Seriously, I hope every US citizen knows why there is the right to...bare arms in the constitution.
So that's why t-shirts are so popular in the US...

Well, it wasn't trashed on Amazon. The last three reviews were bad, but if you look at all nine, they were mostly good. Average rating, 3.5 stars.
The mistakes in the text were certainly the most noted point.
what the hell is up with your sig?
Well, just read the site...for instance:
"The 4 quadrant corners of the Earth sphere rotate as a quad spiraling helix - thus creating
4 simultaneous days per each rotation and 4 simultaneous years per 1 orbit around Sun.
Greenwich day is of stupidity."
I mean, what could be clearer than that?
You obviouly didn't look too deep into quantumn mechanics. They are 'designed' pretty badly
Fine. Let's see your design...
Are you suggesting that his usage of the word queue should have been cue? I thought the only use for the word cue was to refer to a pool cue.
No, it can also mean a signal or stimulus to action, like "cue the music". Queue is used to indicate a line of people.

Okay, I'll bite: What two underrated pieces of entertainment would you put together to create a singularity of coolness?
"The League of Gentlemen" and Age of Empires, obviously.

downloaded mozilla 1.1beta - crashed 15 minutes later - I know its beta
Yes, 1.1 crashed on some sites for me too. I use 1.0 on Win2K and it's fine.
I was considering coming along, but the date happened to be me and my gf's anniversary. Choose a better date next time ;-)
Ahh...the Great British Beer Festival is on from August 6th to 10th, and then we have this.
August is a fine month...
Doh! Yup, I'm thick (today, at least
The cold hard fact is that if an asteroid wants to hit the earth it is going to hit the earth.
It's inarguably true that suicidal, sentient asteroids would pose a major threat to life on earth...
I don't get this? Used up all what time? There was no time limit mentioned...or am I just being thick?
ps. That daft Vanishing Dollar riddle shouldn't have been in the "hard" section...
The version I use is 0.99.19-1
Oh! When did they update this? I go from uk.yahoo.com and they still list the version as 0.93
I'll try out the 0.99.19-1 and see if it's improved. If so, I'll just use that.
Ymessenger for Linux is cool.

You even mention Zip files to alot of users and they get confused let alone say, just untar the file. huh? ok just type tar -xzvf (name).
Or, just click on it...
